Full textAbstract:
From the 1970s on, the structure and connections of the port city changed substantially due to many different factors, as the availability of new IT and naval and communication technologies, globalisation, climate change, and others. The scholar Brian Hoyle developed a model of the evolution of the city-port interface in chronological phases based on these factors. The thesis will start from this base theory and then move to an analysys of the revitalisation process which is considered the end of the evolutionary series of steps.
After this, a question will then be considered to be answered: Is revitalisation really the final stage of the relationships between port and city? Or are we entering a new phase in waterfront development? Hoyle himself more recently considered the beginning of a new stage in his model in which port and city re-build their funcional relations and interdependencies. This stage will be analysed through the theory of Adalberto Vallega, calling for a more intergrated and sustainable coastal management.
At this point we will discover how climate change and globalisation in particular affected the global system and thus also the most common global connection nodes, city-ports. The importance of new approaches in the triangular relation city-port-industry will be highlighted. Vallega points out that in this highly globalised system it is important for the waterfront to regain it’s gateway functions too, to become again a central place, an attraction area, easy to insert in the international and regional economic and trade links.
From this point, we will consider another theory by Van Klink about entering the phase of a port network, through which we will unravel the complex structure and network of today’s big ports and why it is so important to achieve a great integration and cooperation in the management of all port resources, human, financial, and material. Three different typologies of port network will be outlined and we will conclude with the new role of the port authority within this complex system.
The thesis then move to the second and third chapters in which we analyse and sketch out our case study, namely the Port of Durban as a port network and its revitalisation, trying to seize its specificities and unique features.
In the second chapter we start with a panoramic view of the port structure and evolution in history.
Then, two attempts of integrated management will be outlined.
Moreover, a recent project for a new container terminal will be described: the Durban Dig-out Port.
To conclude this second part of the thesis an attempt will be made to analyse the network of South African ports outlining a study by the scholar Theo Notteboom, about setting a new network structure for container terminals in South Africa. We will discover that these changes in the structure of the container port system in South Africa could result in a higher competition between the Suez route and the Cape route by 2020.
In the third chapter we will be focusing specifically on the revitalisation process in Durban, which was peculiar compared to other African ports, beacause the port and city functions remained connected and interdependent. After an introduction on revitalisation in South African ports, the Durban Point Development (DPD) project will be described in all its features, trying to understand the benefits it wants to bring to the city-port life. Also, we will then discuss the main issues that the revitalization process in Durban brought about and we will describe the final layout of the DPD Project.
In the final part of the thesis we will try to forecast some future possible developments for the revitalisation process in Durban.

Dissertação de Mestrado Integrado em Arquitetura, com a especialização em Arquitetura apresentada na Faculdade de Arquitetura da Universidade de Lisboa para obtenção do grau de Mestre.As cidades contemporâneas são resultado de mudanças de paradigmas que refletem os problemas comuns em todo o globo. A sua mudança é constante e, por isso, os modos de vida e as suas vivências estão em permanente evolução. Por conseguinte geraram-se espaços e edifícios abandonados, maioritariamente deixados pelas indústrias, outrora em funcionamento, que, devido às suas características e localização, colocam barreiras aos fluxos da cidade e, consequentemente, ao seu usofruto. A cidade de Lisboa é um exemplo elucidativo do problema citado. Não só por ser uma cidade fortemente portuária, mas também pelo facto de a sua zona oriental ser fortemente marcada pelas indústrias, muitas das quais abandonadas, que impossibilitam o usofruto do rio. Marvila é um modelo representativo da efervescência dos novos modos de vida, onde não existem infraestruturas apropriadas para os acolher no seu potencial, uma vez que o espaço ribeirinho deixado pelas indústrias constitui um desaproveitamento total do seu esplendor, devido à barreira posta através de grandes estruturas inacessíveis à população que, no entanto, permanecem à vista de qualquer um, sendo por isso, quase inevitável a sua escolha para uma futura intervenção. O presente trabalho pretende, assim, aprofundar os problemas referidos anteriormente, e procurar uma solução para os mesmos. Esta passará pela ligação da cidade ao rio, através da reabilitação das zonas industriais abandonadas, a partir da criação de espaços atuais e versáteis para as vivências dos dias de hoje. Natureza, desporto, turismo, comércio e serviços surgirão como potenciais agregadores da cidade preexistente com o rio. A criação deste novo tipo de espaços responderá, deste modo, às rápidas mudanças que se fazem sentir na cidade, promovendo o seu crescimento organizado e, ao mesmo tempo, dinâmico.
ABSTRACT:Contemporany cities are the result of the changing paradigms which reflect the comon problems around the globe. This change never stops, so, the lifestyles e ways to dwell are in permanent evolution. Therefore, there are created abandoned spaces and buildings, most of them, left by the industries, that once were functioning, and due to their caracteristics and location, set barriers to the urban flows, and consequently, its enjoyment. The city of Lisbon is an illustrative example of the mentioned problem. Not only because Lisbon is a strongly port-city, but because of the fact that its oriental area is substantially marked by industries, most of them abandoned, that forbid the enjoyment of the river. Marvila is a strong example of the efeverescence of the new lifestyles, where there is no apropriate infraestructures to welcome them at their full potential, since the waterfront left by the industries constitutes a total misuse of its splendor, due te barrier imposed by the big structures inaccessible to the popultation that, however, remain in plain sight. That’s why it is inevitable its choice to a future intervention. This work intends to deepen the mentioned problems and to find a solution for them. This solution will be based in a conection between the city and the river, throught the reabilitation of old and abandoned industrial areas, by the creation of contemporany and versatile spaces for nowaday’s lifestyle. Nature, sports, turism, comerce and services will appear as potential aggregators of the pre-existing city with the river. Thus, the creation of these new spaces will answer to the quick changes that are being felt in the city, promoting its organized and at the same time, dinamic growth.

The social changes derived from the new arrangements of the world economy over the past forty years have reflected greatly in the spatial structure of cities. For this reason we are seeing the emergence of new modes of interpretation of the territorial situation of the city and new forms of intervention which began to consider, as starting point, the existing city. In this process we witness the revaluation of urban design as a thinking and intervervention instrument in the scope of urban policies which attests to the need to assume joint actions between government and private initiative, that is, to an approximation between urban planning, urban design and the market economy. This new situation indicates the assertion that design is the major instrument in contemporary urban policy. Among the many possibilities opened up in contemporary urban policy context we highlighted, in this work, those that derived from the revaluation process of decaying or abandoned Downtown Areas and Waterfronts and from the perception of the existing potential in those areas in regard to the possibility of recovering cities aiming to it’s (re) integration into the global economy through tourist activity and by attracting businesses and events. The objective of this research is to situate the recent urban design revaluation process in Fortaleza with focus on the spatial cutout named Downtown Waterfront. This work seeks to demonstrate the hypothesis that the recent projects to Fortaleza’s waterfront are placed in the context of contemporary urban projects and seek to insert it in the international tourism panorama. Among these we highlighted the not executed project of Ceará State’s Conventions and Exhibitions Multifunctional Center, developed in 2002.
As transformações sociais decorrentes dos novos arranjos da economia mundial nos últimos quarenta anos têm repercutido enormemente na estrutura espacial das cidades. Em razão disto emergem novos modos de interpretação da realidade territorial da cidade e novas formas de intervenção que passam a considerar, como ponto de partida, a cidade existente. Neste processo assistimos à revalorização do projeto urbano como instrumento de reflexão e intervenção no âmbito de políticas urbanas que atestam a necessidade de assumir ações conjuntas entre o poder público e a iniciativa privada, isto é, de buscar uma aproximação entre o planejamento urbano, o desenho urbano e a economia de mercado. Este novo contexto aponta para a afirmação do projeto como instrumento fundamental da política urbana contemporânea. Dentre as múltiplas perspectivas abertas no âmbito da política urbana contemporânea destacamos, neste trabalho, aquelas que decorrem do processo de revalorização de Áreas Centrais e Frentes Marítimas decadentes ou abandonadas e da percepção do potencial existente nestas áreas no que se refere à possibilidade de recuperação das cidades com vistas à sua (re) inserção na economia global por meio da atividade turística e da atração de negócios e eventos. O objetivo desta pesquisa é situar o recente processo de revalorização do projeto urbano em Fortaleza com foco no recorte espacial da Frente Marítima da Área Central da cidade. Este trabalho procura demonstrar a hipótese de que os projetos recentes para a orla de Fortaleza estão inseridos no contexto dos projetos urbanos contemporâneos e buscam inseri-la no panorama do turismo internacional. Dentre estes destacamos o projeto não executado do Centro Multifuncional de Eventos e Feiras do Ceará, elaborado em 2002.

Tese de Mestrado em ArquitecturaAs relações entre cidade e rio, através dos espaços portuários, constituem uma constante no decorrer da evolução urbana nos diversos contextos culturais e históricos. As questões apresentadas na presente dissertação tencionam abordar a relação cidade-rio e os problemas que a afectam. O objectivo principal é a definição de uma estratégia de intervenção a nível urbano para poder melhorar esta relação, assim como a definição do papel que podem ter os equipamentos públicos culturais como elementos centrais de regeneração do espaço e conexão. Face a compreensão destas relações cidade-rio apresenta-se uma pesquisa no âmbito teórico, onde o estudo dos waterfront e a evolução do papel dos portos até as suas actuais configurações, são elementos fundamentais. Desenvolveu-se uma pesquisa e análise de três casos de estudo relacionados com a recuperação de waterfronts: Barcelona, Bilbau e Hamburgo. Concluiu-se que existe uma tendência a reservar estas zonas para espaço público, que a função cultural tem uma forte presença, sendo imprescindível a coordenação entre as diversas entidades participantes. Na escala referida ao equipamento cultural como elemento de ligação, foram analisados mais três casos de estudo: Os waterfronts urbanos Seattle Olympic Sculpture Park, Plataforma Tejo, e o Centro Cultural de Belém. Na análise destes projectos constata-se que os equipamentos culturais com espaços públicos elevados têm resultados muito positivos na ligação cidade - waterfront, e propiciam o aumento de fluxos de utentes do espaço público na frente de água. Para perceber a situação de Lisboa, foi feita uma pesquisa histórica e avaliou-se o problema da barreira existente que separa a cidade do Tejo; ao mesmo tempo, ao analisar a malha urbana, constatou-se a existência de vazios urbanos adjacentes à dita barreira. Finalmente a dissertação propõe uma estratégia urbana baseada numa intervenção nos vazios existentes. Neste caso o equipamento cultural associado ao espaço público funcionará como elemento fundamental dentro do sistema de ligações da Frente Ribeirinha. Este conceito será a base do desenvolvimento do projecto. A conclusão principal é a percepção de possíveis estratégias de intervenção no waterfront.
ABSTRACT - The problems concerning the relation city-river, repeat themselves along the urban evolution in different cultural and historical contexts. The issues here presented attempt to deal with the relation city-river, and several of the problems that affect this relation both in a local and global context. The main goal is to define an urban strategy of intervention that seeks to improve the city-river relations. The other main goal is to define the role that cultural public facilities can play as main elements in the regeneration and connection of space. Intending to understand the city-river relations, a theoretical research is presented. In this research the waterfront relations and the evolution of the role of the port through its current situation are key elements. A research and analysis is made, based on three study cases that deal with waterfront interventions: Barcelona, Bilbao and Hamburg. The conclusion was that there is a tendency to preserve these areas to public space that the cultural role has a strong presence, and that it is crucial the coordination between the several entities participating. In the other scale, referring to cultural facilities, three waterfront study cases that work as connecting elements between the city and the waterfront were analyzed: Seattle Olympic Sculpture Park, Plataforma Tejo and the Centro Cultural de Belém. In the analysis made it is noted that the cultural facilities that integrate in the project the elevated public space have very positive results to connect the two realities. These same cultural facilities also cause na increase of user fluxes of the public space in front of the water. To fully understand the case of Lisbon, a historical research was made, and the barrier problem that separates the city from the Tejo was detected. At the same time by analyzing the urban fabric, several urban voids adjacent to the barrier were founded. Finally an urban strategy based on the intervention in the existing voids is proposed. In this case the cultural facilities together with the public space will work as a key element in the network of connecting spaces with the waterfront. The main conclusion is the creation of possible waterfront intervention strategies, and the way to improve the city-river relation.

Full textAbstract:
2010 - 2011La crisi industriale degli anni ’80 ha comportato la dismissione di molte aree portuali e industriali e il conseguente abbandono di numerose zone sul litorale. Per molte città, persa ogni speranza di espansione industriale, e’ divenuta sempre più urgente ed attuale l’esigenza di interventi di recupero e trasformazione tesi alla riappropriazione di questi ambiti, prima negati o inaccessibili a causa della presenza delle installazioni portuali. Il tema della riqualificazione del waterfront ha assunto, nel corso degli ultimi decenni, un ruolo fondamentale nei processi di rigenerazione urbana e ha stimolato l’apertura di una nuova stagione di riflessione anche sulla città in generale. Il fronte mare non è più una semplice linea di demarcazione e ha smesso di essere una passeggiata attrezzata di ottocentesca memoria. Esso si configura come un fulcro intorno a cui ruota lo sviluppo urbano alla ricerca di nuove identità e centralità alternative. Talvolta si pone come vero e proprio “motore” in grado di innescare processi di rinnovamento che coinvolgono l’intero contesto urbano. Processi che, al di là della riqualificazione fisica dei luoghi, promuovono dinamiche rigenerative di ampio respiro e differente natura - economica, sociale, culturale, etc….-. Il presente lavoro di ricerca si inserisce, quindi, all’interno di un dibattito di grande attualità, proponendo una riflessione sul rapporto tra la città e il mare dall’antichità ai giorni nostri. L’esame di tendenze generali e lo studio di casi emblematici europei (Barcellona e Bilbao, in particolare) e di una realtà nostrana (Salerno), confluiscono in una dettagliata analisi critico-comparativa finale che tenta di ricondurre il caso particolare di Salerno all’interno di un dibattito più ampio che supera il ristretto ambito locale e propone una riflessione sulle attuali tendenze di waterfront regeneration. Le analisi e le valutazioni proposte portano, infine, all’individuazione di linee guida e criteri ottimali da cui discende la definizione sintetica di quelle che possono essere considerate, a nostro avviso, le “chiavi” indispensabili ed imprescindibili per un approccio progettuale corretto e sostenibile per il recupero urbano di aree a contatto con l’acqua.

A reabilitação de orlas fluviais degradadas encontra-se em fase de grande prosperidade no Brasil. O estudo de medidas de reabilitação e dos fatores que definem seu sucesso são temas frequentemente debatidos na ciência. No entanto, esse debate está, geralmente, centrado em parâmetros mais facilmente mensuráveis que aderem à objetividade científica, ignorando, muitas vezes, aspectos mais subjetivos como a estética da paisagem ou o valor recreativo que poderiam ser identificados a partir da percepção dos indivíduos. Desta forma, o objetivo principal desta pesquisa é gerar subsídios para a elaboração de projetos de urbanização de orlas fluviais por meio da identificação dos níveis de satisfação e das preferências dos indivíduos em relação aos aspectos de desenho urbano dessas áreas. A estratégia de pesquisa adotada foi um estudo de caso realizado em uma área de orla fluvial degradada localizada no campus do Vale da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul em Porto Alegre-RS. Os métodos de coleta de dados englobam levantamento de arquivo, levantamento físico, observação e questionário com uso de simulações. Os resultados indicam que as preferências dos indivíduos envolvem ambientes com grandes áreas alagadas, mas mantendo uma proporção equilibrada com as áreas secas, margens com aspecto visual mais natural, alta densidade de vegetação arbórea de grande porte, distribuição desta vegetação de forma a criar grandes áreas sombreadas e ensolaradas, maior aceitação de equipamentos de lazer ativo do que passivo, distribuição de vias para automóveis acompanhando o traçado dos cursos d’água e trilhas e ciclovias próximas e distantes da água.The rehabilitation of degraded waterfronts is in great prosperity phase in Brazil. The study of rehabilitation measures and the factors that determine their success are frequently debated topics in science. However, this debate usually focus on easily measurable parameters that fits the scientific objectivity, often ignoring subjective aspects such as landscape aesthetic or recreational value, that could be identified by the perception of individuals. Thus, the main goal of this research is to provide support for the development of waterfront urbanization plans by identifying the levels of satisfaction and preferences of individuals in relation to urban design aspects of these areas. The research strategy adopted was a case study in a degraded riverfront area located on the Vale campus of the Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul in Porto Alegre-RS. Data collection methods include file and physical survey, observation and questionnaire using simulations. The results indicate that the preferences of individuals involve environments with large wetlands, while maintaining a balanced proportion to the dry areas, banks presenting a higher natural appearance, high density of large tree vegetation, vegetation distribution that allows to create large shaded and sunny areas, greater acceptance of active leisure activities than passive, distribution of streets following the route of waterways and trails and bicycle paths near and far from the water.

Full textAbstract:
Concerns for sustainability and the environmental management processes that contribute to it, is of critical importance to the future growth of cities throughout the world. Cities located along river corridors, lakes and coastal waterways have a greater concern as human migration to these areas has increased over the last several decades. Bordered by water, these communities must make use of limited land while protecting critical natural resources from damage due to their continued growth. From ancient times, such urban settlements and their ports were intimately related in both functional and spatial terms (Hoyle and Pinder) owing their prosperity to waters usefulness and ease in transportation and trade. In port cities today, the symbiosis between water and human based functions has changed dramatically, challenging cities at times to reclaim industrial and derelict properties and transform them into spaces that expand economic growth, protect public health, the environment, and create a sense of place for local residents. The goal of this project is to identify design guidelines that fall within the parameters of sustainable and smart growth planning and develop a model for a sustainable waterfront redevelopment project. The challenge in this project is to develop a model that meets 3 distinct design criteria: 1. Restore the biological and physical structure of the water and shoreline where possible. 2. Enhance the existing waterfront facade and landscape. 3. Allocate space for the areas cultural, social and public programs throughout the entire project. Coastal and waterfront communities around the world have a distinct sense of place created by their history and geographic location. Some of these once thriving maritime communities, over time have deteriorated into underutilized, obsolete and often contaminated properties. Bordered by water, coastal communities are challenged to make use of limited land, while protecting the natural resources from the effects of urban growth. Taking advantage of and reinvesting in these pre-disturbed coastal areas, communities can once again thrive, bringing value back to both the economy and the community. Living near or on the water historically has been and is expected to remain very desirable. Take for example the United States. In the U.S., coastal cities cover less than 17% of the land area yet 52% of the U.S. population lives within that area, and that number is expected to grow (Smart Growth manual 3). In third world countries that number is even higher due in part to the number of jobs available and the overall quality of life in these areas is better. Panama City is no different. The city is in the midst of its own population explosion. At the beginning of European settlement (1501), historians estimate that the entire population (some 60 tribes) of what is now the Republic of Panama was between 500,000 and 750.000. (U.S. Library of Congress) Today, the city hosts a population of just over 1.2 million people, roughly 52% of the countries entire population. (U.S. Library of Congress). According to the world bank, Panama is an uppermiddle income developing country that suffers from extreme income inequality affecting 40% of its population. (World Bank.org)

The study of waterfront planning largely focuses on the physical reconnection of the post-industrial, downtown waterfront with the spatial fabric of the city. Attention is given to the need for clarity of regulations, strong leadership, and citizen support. Little focus is given to less visible, residential neighborhood waterfronts, and the importance of understanding and incorporating the neighborhood perspective into the planning process. In this study, the post-industrial waterfront neighborhoods of Greenpoint and Red Hook, Brooklyn are the focus. Ways in which the histories of the neighborhoods, the experiences of their residents and the pressure of outside development interests interact with the city's approach to planning the waterfront are explored. An attempt is made to understand how this dynamic might better inform the way waterfront planning is approached. At the core of this new approach is the recognition that planning for today's waterfront is a complex and contentious process. The neighborhood waterfront setting requires a planning and implementation process that bridges various city-agencies and links to planning activity at the neighborhood level.

O projeto de revitalização do espaço portuário de Puerto Madero (1989) é uma das referências quando se trata de um projeto para o Cais Mauá. Focando na integração sociourbana e no fomento da atividade turística, essa pesquisa investiga como a revitalização do porto de Buenos Aires pode auxiliar no planejamento de um projeto para o porto de Porto Alegre. Com maior atenção voltada à escala micro, utiliza o método da etnografia urbana para observar, descrever e interpretar as relações que se dão entre os espaços portuários e os do entorno. Para tal análise, toma como base os conceitos de Espaço Geográfico e Paisagem, sem negligenciar os de Território, (Entre)Lugar e Escala. Discute o tema das revitalizações em geral para logo apontar aspectos específicos das revitalizações portuárias; e lança mão da família das categorias: pedaço, mancha, circuito, trajeto e pórtico (MAGNANI, 2000). Apresenta as evoluções históricas dos portos de Puerto Madero e do Cais Mauá com base no quadro de Hoyle (1988), além de seus projetos de revitalização e fases de planejamento. Identifica um total de sete cenas em Buenos Aires e oito em Porto Alegre, destacando as (des)conexões destas com as áreas foco dos projetos. Desenvolve, para ambos os casos, a Análise de Integração Urbana, dividida em Análise de Integração com a Cidade e Análise de Integração com o Local. Tendo em vista uma das principais críticas do processo de revitalização do Cais Mauá – a apresentação de apenas um projeto para o Edital da Concorrência 2010 –, levanta uma possibilidade – de tantas possíveis – para a área do porto de Porto Alegre. Conclui que o projeto de Puerto Madero teve respostas positivas para a cidade de Buenos Aires, integrando-se ao circuito turístico e atraindo investimentos e turistas. Já, numa perspectiva local, o projeto revitalizou o espaço portuário incentivando, contudo, (auto)segregações socioespaciais. Por sua vez, o projeto de revitalização do Cais Mauá, como está sendo proposto, é possível que resulte, a exemplo de Puerto Madero, na fragmentação socioespacial do espaço portuário com os do entorno e na territorialização de poucos atores sociais na área foco do projeto, sem, entretanto, refletir em benefícios para o resto da cidade, como os ocorridos em Buenos Aires.Puerto Madero waterfront regeneration project (1989) is one of the references when it comes to the Cais Mauá project. Focusing on the sociourban integration and the tourism promotion, this research investigates how the revitalization of the port of Buenos Aires can help plan a project for the port of Porto Alegre. With more attention focused on the micro level, uses the method of urban ethnography to observe, describe and interpret the relationships that exist between the port areas and the environment. For this analysis, builds on the concepts of Geographical Space and Landscape, without neglecting the Territory, (Between) Place and Scale; discusses the issue of revitalization in general and then points out specific aspects of port regeneration; applies the family of categories: piece, stain, circuit, path and porch (MAGNANI, 2000). It presents the historical developments of each port based on the framework of Hoyle (1988), the projects and the planning stages. It is identified a total of seven scenes in Buenos Aires and eight in Porto Alegre, highlighting the (dis)connections of the surrounding scenes with the focus areas of the projects. It is developed, in both cases, the Urban Integration Analysis, divided into Town Integration and Site Integration. In view of the main criticisms of the Cais Mauá regeneration project – the presentation of only one project to the Notice of Competition 2010 – raises one possibility to the harbor area of Porto Alegre. It concludes that the project of Puerto Madero had positive responses to the city of Buenos Aires, being integrated to the tourist circuit and attracting investments and tourists. On a local perspective, the project has revitalized the port area encouraging, however, (auto)socio-spatial segregation. In turn, the Cais Mauá regeneration project, as it is being proposed, may result, like Puerto Madero, in socio-spatial fragmentation of the port area with the surroundings and in territorialization of few actors on the focus area of the project without, however, reflecting on benefits for the rest of the city, such as occurred in Buenos Aires.

Con mayor atención centrada en el nivel micro, utiliza el método de la etnografía urbana para observar, describir e interpretar las posibles relaciones de los puertos revitalizados con los espacios circundantes. Para este análisis, se basa en los conceptos del Espacio Geográfico y del Paisaje, sin dejar de lado los conceptos de Territorio, (Entre) Lugar y Escala. También discute el tema de la revitalización en general y apunta a los aspectos del fenómeno global de la restauración de puertos. Aplica la familia de las categorías: pedazo, mancha, circuito, camino y porche (MAGNANI, 2000). Presenta la evolución histórica de cada puerto con base en el cuadro de Hoyle (1988), los proyectos y las fases de planeamiento. Identifica un total de siete escenas en Buenos Aires y ocho en Porto Alegre, destacando las des(conexiones) de las enscenas del entorno con las áreas foco de los proyectos. Desarrolla, en ambos casos, el Análisis de la Integración Urbana, que se divide en Integración con el Local y Integración con la Ciudad. En vista de una de las principales críticas del proceso de restauración del Cais Mauá – la presentación de un solo proyecto a la Convocatoria del Concurso de 2010 – plantea una posibilidad para la zona portuaria de Porto Alegre. Concluí que el proyecto de Puerto Madero ha tenido respuestas positivas para la ciudad, integrándose al circuito turístico y atrayendo inversiones y turistas. En una perspectiva local, el proyecto restauró el espacio portuario incentivando, sin embargo, (auto) segregaciones socio espaciales. Por otro lado, el proyecto de restauración del Cais Mauá, como se está siendo desarrollado, es posible que resulte, a ejemplo de Puerto Madero, en la fragmentación socio espacial del espacio portuario con los del entorno y en la territorialización de pocos atores sociales en el área del proyecto, sin, entretanto, reflejar en beneficios para el resto de la ciudad, como ha ocurrido en Buenos Aires.

As a high quality green belt in the city, a city's waterfront landscape is can be a liveable and comfortable place. For citizens, it is also an attractive place to live in. A good city waterfront landscape can be updated and maintained by itself. Therefore, we can not treat the urban waterfront area as just a beautiful landscape in aesthetic terms, but we should also understand it in deeper and broader dimensions. The urban waterfront landscape directly affects the urban structure, the urban ecological environment and the life quality of the urban residents. By analysizing the two cases, Western Harbor in Malmö and Jinji Lake in Suzhou China, we can draw some interesting conclusions about waterfront landscape. Through the discussion of this subject, I aim for an understanding of the urban waterfront landscape as a harmonious system with the artificial and natural landscapes working together, based on scientific and artistic aspects.

Dissertação de Mestrado Integrado em Arquitetura, com a especialização em Arquitetura apresentada na Faculdade de Arquitetura da Universidade de Lisboa para obtenção do grau de Mestre.O presente trabalho tem como objetivo apresentar uma solução para a problemática dos Vazios Urbanos, sendo estes, nas cidades contemporâneas da atualidade, um problema de grande relevo. Assim, partindo-se do geral, a cidade, para o mais pequeno, o equipamento cultural, dando uma alternativa ao Vazio Urbano da cidade do Barreiro, é investigado de que forma um equipamento cultural pode trazer uma coesão social à cidade. Ao longo do percurso deste projeto, são identificados os principais autores que de alguma forma deixaram a sua marca no que é considerado a reestruturação de um espaço vacante, como este é um elemento essencial para reavivar as cidades. Recorrendo à reutilização dos caminhos-de-ferro abandonados com o final da época industrial na cidade do Barreiro e não querendo esquecer o passado, é importante caminhar para o futuro, projetando um Corredor Verde estruturante A requalificação de um Vazio Urbano posicionada na frente ribeirinha do Tejo, precisamente junto a antiga estação, é de salientar a necessidade de incorporar o rio como um dos elementos chave e de inspiração para a pesquisa, tirando proveito da sua vista privilegiada. Assim, e de forma a continuarem a fazer parte integrante da história da cidade, os caminhos-de-ferro são o meio incorporado do Corredor Verde, assim como essenciais para a requalificação do espaço público.
ABSTRACT: cohesion to the city. Throughout the course of this project, we identify the main authors who somehow left their mark on what is considered the restructuring of a vacant space, as this is an essential element to revive the cities. The requalification of the abandoned railways, who marked the end of the industrial era in the city of Barreiro, is important to move towards the future by designing a structuring Green Corridor. The requalification of the Urban Void positioned on the riverfront of the Tagus, precisely next to the old station, it is necessary to emphasize the need to incorporate the river as one of the key elements and of inspiration for the research, taking advantage of its privileged view. Therefore, and in order to continue to be an integral part of the city's history, railways are the built-in environment of the Green Corridor, as well as essential for the requalification of the public space in the city.

Full textAbstract:
The transformation of urban waterfronts is one of the key urban design and planning stories of the late twentieth century. The decline of the waterfront in post-industrial cities meant the deterioration of both a physical and social nature of significant portions of urban fabric. Cities have reacted to this state of affairs with substantial regeneration programs, approaching the decline of waterfront as an opportunity rather than a problem. However, since the success of early regeneration programs in North America, changing urban waterfronts on a global scale has led to a manifestation of globalisation, becoming a synonym of uniformity and monotony of cities. The urban waterfront also has become a battleground for a number of intersecting forces and different interests and desires. This research aims to study the phenomenon of urban waterfront regeneration, specifically analysing how it has operated within the UK context since the late 20th century until the present. It focuses on investigating the process of transformation of the urban waterfront in the city of Liverpool. Liverpool has suffered from a serious urban decline following the degeneration of its seven miles of docks due to a number of internal and external factors. However, since the 1980s, the image of an abandoned waterfront has started to change with massive waterfront regeneration schemes that aim to improve the physical, environmental, social and economic conditions of the area. This research argues that by understanding the process and the context of this regeneration, several lessons can be learned and models of good practice can be identified. The research is based on a series of lengthy interviews with key stakeholders closely linked with the development in the city, a review of documents related to the regeneration of Liverpool waterfront, including urban design policies and guidance, a substantial review of relevant news articles that were written throughout the periods of the recent transformation of the city, and numerous site visits to reflect upon the development carried out recently. The research also identifies and discusses a number of key urban issues such as image and identity, cultural built heritage, place marketing and branding, urban governance. The research identifies three distinctive eras of waterfront regeneration and several key regeneration schemes. Each of these eras reflects the many factors that shaped the urban landscape. The research argues that there are no specific models that can create successful waterfront regeneration, yet, what is important is ensuring the complexity and the inclusiveness of the process of the regeneration. An inclusive and a complex process will result in attaining urban competitiveness besides securing distinctive, genuine and imaginative urban identity. The research also highlighted the central role of urban design as a mediator between the numerous processes and different forces that shape the urban landscape.

A temática abordada na pesquisa trata dos problemas associados aos rios urbanos, onde a degradação ambiental ocasionada pelo desenvolvimento das cidades afeta a qualidade das águas e do espaço urbano. No Brasil, a maioria dos rios e arroios urbanos é utilizada como parte integrante da rede de coleta de esgoto sanitário e, por isso, são frequentemente canalizados. A situação se agrava nas áreas de ocupação espontânea a beira de mananciais e cursos d’água. Nesses locais a inexistência ou precariedade da infraestrutura de drenagem e saneamento básico colaboram para o aumento da frequência de inundações que causam danos ambientais e sociais a cidade. No entanto, a revitalização de rios urbanos é uma ação adotada a fim de reverter os impactos negativos gerados pelos usos indevidos dos corredores fluviais. O estudo tem como objetivo contribuir no entendimento de aspectos associados a gestão pública, infraestrutura, estrutura, uso e estética na revitalização de arroios em áreas de ocupação espontânea. A Microbacia do Arroio Riacho Doce, integrante da Bacia Hidrográfica do Arroio Dilúvio, em Porto Alegre, foi escolhida como área de estudo. A metodologia utilizada no trabalho, fundamentada na área de estudos de Ambiente-Comportamento, busca avaliar as atitudes e comportamentos diante das características físico-espaciais percebidas pelos habitantes da bacia. O uso de maquetes e simulações gráficas foi adotado a fim de facilitar o entendimento da população inquirida a respeito das avaliações propostas pela pesquisa. Os principais resultados obtidos revelam que embora os arroios da Vila Pinto apresentem uma situação grave de degradação ambiental associada a uma aparência negativa, os moradores desejam a revitalização dos corredores fluviais da Microbacia Riacho Doce. Indica-se, além da despoluição de seus arroios e a provisão de infraestrutura urbana de saneamento e drenagem: a provisão de usos de lazer diversificados em sua orla; a implantação de trilhas e ciclovias visando a priorização da circulação de pessoas e ciclistas em relação a circulação de veículos; a distribuição de vegetação na orla de forma que favoreça a criação de zonas de contato com a água, áreas sombreadas e ensolaradas, promovendo o uso sazonal e a estética da paisagem fluvial.River environmental degradation related to water quality and urban area due to the uncontrolled city’s development is discussed in this work. In Brazil, most urban rivers and streams are piped due to the usage as a part of the sewage system. This scenario worsen when there is irregular occupations around water supply sources. Moreover, the absence of water and sewer drainage and services increases inundation numbers harming cities environmentally and socially. However, river revitalization is an action performed with the purpose to repair negative impacts of undue usage of river corridors. Thus, this study aimed to contribute in the knowledge of subjects related to public management, infrastructure, structure, usage, and aesthetics in stream revitalization of irregular occupation areas. It was chosen the Riacho Doce micro watershed as the studied area, part of Arroio Dilúvio watershed, at Porto Alegre. The methodology used in this work is based on the Environment-Behavior area of study, and it aimed to evaluate attitudes and behaviors of inhabitants from this micro watershed over physical-spatial characteristics. It was used models and draws simulations to facilitate the understanding for the enquired population around the proposed evaluations in this work. Results revealed that inhabitants desires the revitalization of river corridors even that streams from Vila Pinto has a severe environmental degradation linked to a negative appearance. Analysis of inhabitant’s environmental perception showed that stream remediation and infrastructure provision are recommended as well as other important actions. Thus, the supply of leisure spaces around the waterfront, construction of trails for pedestrians and bicycle riders apart from roads, build a contact zones with water in green area, construction of shadow areas with different degrees of sun incidence are some actions strongly recommended to promote seasonal usage and river landscape aesthetic in the studied region.

Dissertação de Mestrado Integrado em Arquitetura, com a especialização em Urbanismo apresentada na Faculdade de Arquitetura da Universidade de Lisboa para obtenção do grau de Mestre.A cidade de Montijo está inserida no território do Arco Ribeirinho Sul, integrando parte do Estuário do Tejo, porém a sua frente urbana ribeirinha não traduz atualmente as potencialidades e valências inerentes à posição que o território lhe confere. Os sinais de declínio urbano, trazidos pela desindustrialização na área afeta à sua zona ribeirinha nos anos 70, e a deslocação do Terminal Fluvial do centro da cidade no início do novo milénio tornaram o Montijo numa cidade despida de vida urbana e de certo modo pouco atrativa. A abordagem ao presente cenário levanta um conjunto de problemáticas relacionadas com a gestão e planeamento, mas também abre, por conseguinte, uma larga janela de oportunidades para repensar o território. Neste sentido, o presente Projeto Final de Mestrado, vem apresentar como premissa a introdução de um novo sistema de acessibilidades, fomentando e consolidando as relações com os núcleos ribeirinhos sul e desencadeando a nível municipal operações de renovação urbana ribeirinha, produzindo uma série de transformações na malha urbana. A integração da rede de transportes públicos no núcleo da cidade e a criação de uma estação intermodal integrada no espaço urbano surgem como elementos promotores de um desenvolvimento e planeamento sustentável, especialmente para a sua zona ribeirinha, inserindo e conjugando estratégias de adaptação e mitigação face ao fenómeno das alterações climáticas, nomeadamente a subida do nível médio das águas. É desta forma pretendido que a operação proposta por este projeto contribua para uma melhoria na qualidade de vida na cidade do Montijo, tanto no aspeto da acessibilidade, mobilidade como no aspeto ambiental, por forma que estas alterações permitam ao município a afirmação da sua posição centralizada no Arco Ribeirinho Sul.
ABSTRACT: The city of Montijo is inserted in the ‘Arco Ribeirinho Sul’ (South Riverside Arch) territory, a part of the Tagus Estuary, although presently its riverside urban front does not reflect the potential and services inherent to its location. The signs of urban decline, a result of the de-industrialisation in its water front area in the seventies, and the relocation of its fluvial terminal away from the city centre in the beginning of the New Millennium, made Montijo a city stripped of urban life and somewhat unattractive. The approach to this scenario raises some problems related to management and planning, although it also opens a large window of opportunities to rethink the territory. Bearing this in mind, this Final Master’s Project aims to introduce a new accessibility system, improving and consolidating the relationships with the south riverside, and to start, at the municipal level, a series of changes to the urban sprawl. The integration of a network of public transportation within the city centre and the creation of an intermodal station integrated in the urban sprawl are key elements for a sustainable development and planning, especially to its riverside area, with the insertion of adaptation and mitigation strategies against climate changes, in particular the rise of the sea water level. Therefore, this project aims to improve the quality of life in the city of Montijo, both in terms of accessibility and mobility, without forgetting the environmental aspect, in a way that allows this municipality to reinforce its central position in the ‘Arco Ribeirinho Sul’.

Dissertação de Mestrado Integrado com a especialização em Interiores e Reabilitação do EdificadoO Parque Natural da Ria Formosa é um dos tesouros mais bem guardados do Sul de Portugal, destacado pela sua paisagem única e diversidade faunística e florística. Faro, inserido na zona de maior extensão da Ria Formosa, vive de costas voltadas para a mesma, graças à presença da linha do comboio, que, presente ao longo de toda a frente ribeirinha, se torna um obstáculo visual e físico incontornável. No entanto, existe uma zona, esquecida pela cidade, que apresenta potencial para uma reconexão entre a Cidade e a Ria. Face à existência de Vazios Urbanos, gerados pela desindustrialização das cidades, tem-se assistido à sucessiva Revitalização Urbana dos mesmos, através de acções que contribuem para o reforço da identidade da cidade. Inserido na temática da Revitalização de Frentes de Água, o presente trabalho busca uma reconexão entre a Cidade de Faro e a Ria Formosa, através da Revitalização do Cais Comercial de Faro e do seu tecido adjacente. Efectivamente, através de uma intervenção sensível ao carácter natural da paisagem protegida, busca-se restabelecer uma ligação há muito perdida, reafirmando Faro enquanto capital distrital. De forma a criar uma nova centralidade, a implantação de equipamentos âncora, a oferta de Espaços Públicos de qualidade e a exploração da Náutica de Recreio, como produto de referência da cidade, tornam-se armas de peso que tornam esta zona obsoleta na ligação privilegiada da Cidade ao Parque Natural da Ria Formosa.
ABSTRACT: Ria Formosa Natural Park is one of the greatest treasures held in the South of Portugal, highlighted by its unique landscape and biodiversity. Given the placing of the railway along Faro’s waterfront, that becomes a visual and physical barier, the city, even though is inserted in the biggest extension area of this treasure, lives oblivious to it’s potencial. However, there is an area, overlooked by the city, that has the potential to reconnect the city to its waterfront. We live in an era that has been pursuing urban void’s, generated in post-industrial cities, to revitalize them in hopes of reinforcing the city’s identity. Following the current movement, of Waterfront Revitalization, this Master Thesis seeks a reconnection between the city of Faro and Ria Formosa and an improvement of the city’s urban environment by Revitalizing Faro’s Port and its surroundings. The aim is to reestablish a long-lost connection, through an intervention that takes into consideration the natural charm of this protected landscape, to be able to reaffirm Faro as the district’s capital. In order to turn this obsolete area into an exceptional link between the city and the water, the inclusion of flagship equipment’s, the design of quality public spaces and the development of the yachting sector become this area’s biggest asset, shaping it into a new urban cente

This thesis aims to provide an overview of the transformation of urban waterfront space in Suzhou, demonstrating how the city underwent different phases of development that significantly affected its relationship with water. After providing a brief historical background, the research focuses on the emergence and development of Suzhou urban waterways and on their economic, social and cultural significance. Following the evolution of the city in the modernization era, Suzhou underwent a spatial reconfiguration that resulted in a dramatic loss of traditional waterways and in the detachment of local people from the waterfront space, affected by pollution and degradation. The rediscovery of the value of urban waterways occurred in recent years is then discussed, by analyzing three projects addressing the revitalization of waterfront space in different areas of the city. In conclusion, some social and cultural issues related to the practice of waterfront redevelopment are underlined and the reconciliation of local people with water is identified as a way to preserve and transmit the traditional water culture of the region.

Devido aos sucessivos aterros levados a cabo pelo porto de Setúbal, no final do século XIX, a relação entre Setúbal e o Sado viu-se drasticamente alterada. Este trabalho pretende assim reflectir e agir sobre os espaços expectantes resultantes desta separação, de modo a reclamar para o domínio da cidade estes lugares de oportunidade que são verdadeiros instrumentos de regeneração urbana. Repensar uma cidade enquanto um todo, conectada com os meios que a rodeiam. Desta forma, visa-se valorizar a zona em estudo, através da regeneração urbana e de uma arquitectura de raíz, que promova actividades no âmbito cultural e desportivo, sem menosprezar o espaço publico. A solução apresentada pretende assim dar resposta às necessidades da contemporânea cidade de Setúbal, de maneria a potenciar a sua crescente economia. A fim de operar sobre as temáticas da regeneração urbana e da recuperaração da memória do lugar, é apresentada uma proposta urbana e arquitetónica que se debruça sobre diferentes escalas. A frente de água ganha então forma, através do desenvolvimento prático de uma proposta direccionada para o desporto e a interligação das pessoas que frequentam este espaço, reclamando o seu lugar enquanto marco na fachada da frente ribeirinha.
ABSTRACT:This Master’s Final Project proposes to lay the foundations for a critical discourse about the marked degradation of the Setúbal riverfront and the separation between the river and the city. Due to the successive landfills carried out by the port of Setúbal in the late nineteenth century, the relationship between Setúbal and Sado was dramatically changed. This work intends to reflect and act on the expectant spaces resulting from this separation, in order to claim to the city domain these places of opportunity that are true instruments of urban regeneration. Rethinking a city as a whole, connected with its surroundings. Thus, it aims to enhance the area under study, through urban regeneration and a root architecture, which promotes activities in the cultural and sports, without neglecting the public space. The solution presented here intends to meet the needs of the contemporary city of Setúbal in order to boost its growing economy. In order to work on the themes of urban regeneration and the recuperation of the memory of the place, an urban and architectural proposal that deals with different scales is presented. The waterfront then takes shape, through the practical development of a sports-oriented proposal and the interconnection of the people who frequent this space, claiming its place as a landmark on the front of the riverfront.

Il presente lavoro si propone di attraversare il tema del recupero dei waterscapes nel paesaggio urbano in chiave turistico-ricreativa. La ricerca è focalizzata sulla città di Amsterdam dove l’osservazione diretta ha permesso di analizzare le soluzioni architettoniche, ambientali e sociali adottate a partire dagli anni ’80 del secolo scorso nell’area dell’antico porto dove scorre il fiume IJ. Le riflessioni sono supportate, tramite materiali iconografici, dall’analisi della storica relazione tra popolo olandese e ambienti caratterizzati dalla presenza dell’acqua, aspetto che apre alcune considerazioni sul rapporto che le comunità urbane, soprattutto europee, hanno avuto ed ancora hanno con questo elemento. Il lavoro richiama pertanto le convinzioni che supportarono gli interventi di ingegneria idraulica in epoca industriale come affermazione della potenza dell’uomo sulla natura, per passare ai successivi casi di rinaturalizzazione degli spazi urbani. La descrizione del rilancio dell’IJ waterfront è introdotta da altri esempi europei e dalla comparazione di studi ed indagini sul benessere derivato dai blue spaces. Attraverso questo elaborato si vuole evidenziare come gli interventi condotti nella capitale olandese su antichi edifici e nuovi complessi, la valorizzazione al loro interno di artisti locali e internazionali e le recenti proposte di turismo esperienziale, facciano di Amsterdam un esempio significativo nella riqualificazione dei waterfronts postindustriali.

Waterfront cities have historically evolved through conditions generated by reciprocity between water and landscape. Just as water gives form to the natural landscape, it provokes form in the built environment. Today the relationship has become less apparent. The intention of this thesis is to explore the reintegration of a city with its waterfront through the building of public space and access. This thesis proposes a design as an investigation of the following: -- how spatial and visual access between inland and waterfront public places can enrich one's experience and understanding of a city -- how waterfront structures and built landscape can intensify the exchange between land and water -- how pier and warehouse vocabulary may be transformed and reinterpreted; and finally -- how programmatic balance of public and private, utilitarian and commercial developments may help to redefine and revitalize an urban waterfront.

This thesis explores issues of urban form through an understanding of vernacular traditions in a local context. The exploration consists of looking at the characteristics of a particular place in an attempt to understand how a past way of defining space might inform a future way of making. The underlying concern in this thesis is the issue of disinvestment in our cities and towns. City centers -- once thriving commercial, civic, and community precincts -- have become fragmented, stratified, and isolated places. As crime, suburbanization, and disinvestment impoverish the public realm of the city center, those that can afford to avoid the plurality of the street for an increasingly privatized existence. Our built environment is a direct reflection of these trends -- the more we turn inward for stimulation, the less emphasis we place on the exterior; the more concerned we are with bottom line costs, the less we spend on public amenities and infrastructure. By focusing on a city in which these problems are manifest one might explore ways that architecture can provide increased opportunities for interaction and communication between people. For the purposes of this exploration, the City of New Bedford was chosen; it is a place of longstanding building traditions that faces the disinvestment that plagues many American cities today, The methodology that has been developed is rooted in vernacular traditions, and it establishes a mechanism for strengthening and enriching the interface between public and private realms.

Urban waterfronts are host to every shade of a city's development. Once pulsating with trade and production, the very reason for the city's existence, the mid 20th century brought jarring macroeconomic shifts and technological change that left this vibrant edge largely abandoned. Nothing remains static at the shore; new value was found in the void amidst the remaining industry. Warehouses, factories, and waterfront infrastructure have often proven adaptable to the post-industrial city. As we continue to redevelop this urban waterfront, are our methods and institutions allowing for flexibility for the next wave of change? I argue that we could improve. As various actors with conflicting interests compete for space at the waterfront, their constructions lend a level of permanence to the built environment. Because the urban form is so enduring, we should seek to maximize flexibility in order to avoid the negative aspects of obsolescence and decline. In this research I investigate the forces that influence our development decisions, the reasons for each claim to the waterfront, and the processes by which one is prioritized over another through the lens of Brooklyn, New York. Brooklyn has a great diversity of land uses, industries, and demographics. Its history is colorful and has led to a present condition replete with challenge and opportunity along the shore. Residential development, industrial retention, maritime industry, green space, and access, are some of the themes that need to be reconciled. Through its recent waterfront development we see clear evidence of societal values manifest in the built environment. It is imperative that we recognize the fleeting nature of even these as well as the exogenous variables that can swiftly transform our way of life. As the city experiences growth and decline, the waterfront in flux is host to both sides of the growth curve. Through both market outcomes and tools of government intervention, cities can seek to set the conditions to gracefully accommodate change and give those in the future a voice. Like a distant object looming on the horizon, the uncertain and the unforeseen are not so formidable if we plan for their imminent arrival.

Ultimately this project was approached
As a kind of architectural choreography.
As in all choreography motion plays a
Major role. The motion of the participants
Through the spaces, and the placement of
The pieces in relation to each other. On a
Smaller scale a choreography of duality.
Mute, mute, light
Enclosed space, enclosed space, volume
Horizontal and vertical
This project being a vehicle for discovery
Various amounts of play and exploration
Are allowed within this choreography.
The amount of play allowed is both the strength and weakness of this project.
With something of this range and scope there are:
Direct hits,
Near hits,
Near misses,
Direct misses,
All within the whole.
Finally as with anything that is thoroughly
Done it is fuel for beginning and not an end
In and of itself.Master of Architecture

It is the intention of this thesis to present not only a visual exploration of a design problem, but also an explanation of a particular design process.
It is fashionable these days for a designer to make statements about his design philosophy as a way of legitimizing his architectural intentions. My aim is to avoid this kind of justification by instead presenting the project as a process description. This description will make my beliefs and intentions both evident and understandable to those unfamiliar with my work as well as provide a personal record of the project’s development.
To date my architecture education has been shaped in different countries, through different educational systems, and with different teachers and students. This thesis stands as a record of my accumulated experiences and as a description of a personal approach to working with architectural problems. I believe the most important part of an architecture education is the development of one‘s own design process.
This exposition represents a beginning.Master of Architecture

The purpose of this thesis is to establish design guidelines that will encourage an intimate relationship between waterfront users and the adjacent waterway through increased immediate physical, visual, and audible access to water. This thesis includes a literature review to build an understanding of: (1) the relationship between people and water; (2) the evolution of urban waterfronts in the United States and how intimacy with water is limited by the siting of buildings, construction of transportation infrastructure, and installation of flood control measures; and (3) three approaches used to create design guidelines for an intimate waterfront design. The established design guidelines are then used to analyze three waterfronts: the Inner Harbor in Baltimore, Maryland; Carroll Creek in Frederick, Maryland; and the Georgetown waterfront in Washington, D.C. This analysis leads to the position that successful urban waterfronts must allow for immediate access to the water to foster an intimate experience for waterfront users. This position is then tested through the anaylsis and design of the Rock River waterfront in Janesville, WI.Master of Landscape Architecture

Dissertação de Mestrado Integrado em Arquitetura, com a especialização em Urbanismo apresentada na Faculdade de Arquitetura da Universidade de Lisboa para obtenção do grau de Mestre.O presente trabalho final de Mestrado enfoca-se no tema da Regeneração Urbana em Frentes Ribeirinhas. A investigação começa no estudo sobre o genérico desfecho e relocalização das actividades industriais das cidades, tendo sido possível verificar a existência de uma nova tendência de reformulação do espaço público das frentes ribeirinhas que por sua vez adicionou novas perspectivas de olhar e pensar a cidade e o seu rio. Face à existência de vazios urbanos causados pelo sucessivo abandono das unidades industriais tem-se assistido em Lisboa a várias intervenções de requalificação urbana no seu território ribeirinho, que vieram contribuir para o reforço da imagem e identidade da cidade. Todavia, certos espaços da cidade encontram-se ainda por definir. Assim, no presente Projecto Final de Mestrado é apresentado o Caso de Algés, mais especificamente a zona composta e envolvente ao aterro adjacente à Doca de Pedrouços. Embora evidenciando o seu potencial, o estudo mostra como esta área pouco consolidada foi perdendo a sua vitalidade económica de espaço portuário, cultural e paisagístico. Neste trabalho investigou-se como a indústria foi afetando o território, relatando e estudando o seu passado até ao actual estado, fazendo uma análise do território em causa bem como aprofundando conceitos inerentes para que uma melhor estratégia fosse delineada. Por fim desenvolveu-se uma proposta urbana fundamentada pelas conclusões estudadas.
ABSTRACT: The investigation starts into the study of the generic cease and relocation of industrial activities on cities, which has led to a new reform of the public space of the seaside areas, adding a new perspective of thinking about the city and its river. Taking advantage of the urban voids caused by the successive desertion of industrial units, several urban regenerations have been carried out in Lisbon’s waterfront areas in this past years. This fact contributed to reinforce the image and identity of a city related with its river. Also, a new perspective on the riverfront was added to the urban interventions such as a programmatic model associated with the territory’s economics and functional activities. However, certain areas of Lisbon are still to be defined. Therefore, in this present work, the Algés’s case is presented, where its landfill nearby to Pedrouços dock is inactive towards a consolidated city. This fact contributes to the loss its economic vitality, cultural and landscape space. Yet the urban study of this area displays its potential. In this work, an investigation of the industrial methods that affected the territory was made, by reporting its past to its present state, interpreting the area as well as the understanding of the inherent concepts, so that a better strategy can be made. And finally, the work developed an urban project based on the conclusions.

Delhi, a 14 million people megacity, has a huge open space area available in its heart along the banks of the Yamuna River. At the same time, Delhi, which would like to become a fully-fledged global city, does not have a real modern business district yet, which explains why companies are moving to business-friendly neighbouring States such as Haryana and Uttar Pradesh, even as these companies would be much useful for the economic and social development of the capital of India. The banks of the Yamuna appear like an ideal location for a new business center. Or is it really? Research shows that creating a business-oriented waterfront along the Yamuna would be a valuable option and would bring in more revenue to the city than other solutions for the site, but only if certain conditions are respected in terms of environment, infrastructure and politics. Soil improvement and earthquake engineering techniques, renovated systems of transportation, water supply and treatment and electricity generation, mixed land use as well as institutional reforms and an intelligent real estate strategy are all necessary conditions for creating a waterfront that will be both attractive and sustainable. These conditions create minimu and maximum thresholds for development, between which conditions vary and create three different designs: a "Central Park model", a "Lutyens model" and a "Singapore" one. Key-Words: Delhi - Yamuna - floods - waterfront - global city - megacity - soil improvement - economic development - real estate - capital city - development project.

Dissertação de Mestrado Integrado em Arquitetura, com a especialização em Urbanismo apresentada na Faculdade de Arquitetura da Universidade de Lisboa para obtenção do grau de Mestre.O presente relatório constitui a base teórica que suporta e justifica o Projeto Final de Mestrado Integrado em Arquitetura com especialização em Urbanismo. Baseado no tema das Frentes Ribeirinhas em Cidades Pós-Industriais e nas intervenções de regeneração urbana que se têm assistido nestes territórios, focando-se, também, na importância que os transportes tiveram no desenvolvimento da cidade. A intervenção situa-se na zona oriental de Lisboa, por se considerar uma área com potencial mas que se encontra desvalorizada devido aos vários constrangimentos urbanos que impedem uma continuidade urbana. As infraestruturas como a linha férrea de Santa Apolónia e o porto de Lisboa, criam o efeito barreira, impedindo não só, a relação entre a cidade em si, como a relação da cidade com o rio. Além disso, criam um ambiente hostil que tanto caracteriza esta Lisboa Oriental. Desde a criação da Estação do Oriente que Santa Apolónia tem vindo a perder importância, enquanto estação de comboios. Apesar do seu valor simbólico, considera-se que o comboio é um transporte inadequado para o centro da cidade. Com o intuito de resolver este problema, a intervenção passa pela Reconversão do Sistema Ferroviário Oriental como Motor da Regeneração Urbana, criando uma alternativa à existência do comboio. Com intervenção urbana entre Santa Apolónia e Xabregas.
ABSTRACT: This report constitutes the theoretical basis that supports and justifies the Final Project of Integrated Master in Architecture specializing in Urbanism. Based on the theme of the Waterfront in Post-Industrial Cities and urban regeneration interventions observed in these territories, also focusing on the importance that transportation had in the development of the city. The intervention is located in the eastern Lisbon area, due to its potential, but devalued by various urban constraints that prevent an urban continuity. Infrastructures like the Santa Apolonia railway line and the Lisbon port, creating a barrier effect, preventing not only the link between the city itself and also between the city and the river. In addition, they create an hostile environment characterising East Lisbon. Since the creation of the Oriente Station, the Santa Apolonia station has been losing its importance. Despite its symbolic and cultural value, the train is nowadays considered an inadequate mean of transportation to the city center. To solve this issue, the intervention involves the Reconversion of the Eastern Railway System as Motor of Urban Regeneration, creating an alternative to the outdated train. With urban intervention between Santa Apolonia and Xabregas.

Redeveloping centrally located waterfronts took of properly in the late 1990’s. Before that, the old brownfields were left untouched for years, often resulting in the connection between them and the city centre worsening. The thesis aims to explore strategies and approaches for waterfront developments. This was done by analysing the strategies used whilst planning the following three sites; Västra Hamnen in Malmö, Nordhavn in Copenhagen and Cardiff Bay in Cardiff. In addition to this, a waterfront site in Gothenburg was chosen and used to put the theoretical discoveries into practice. The theoretical foundation is made up of a literature and document study, where the three case studies and the designated site acted as the main topics of research along with general information about waterfronts and architectural and cultural heritage. The case studies were analysed using a combination of field studies and a literature study. A matrix consisting of ten columns and four rows was created and used as a base for analysing the approaches of the three cities. The site analysis was done with the help of a document study and field study. Both field studies were executed using the method of walk-throughs. The thesis resulted in six suggestions for future actions when redeveloping waterfronts as well as an urban framework proposal. The results are meant to work as a basis for future projects.Utvecklingen av centralt belägna hamnområden tog fart ordentligt under det sena 1990-talet. De gamla industriområdena hade innan dess inte prioriterats, något som ofta resulterade i att förbindelserna mellan dem och stadskärnan försämrades. Syftet med uppsatsen är att utforska strategier och tillvägagångssätt som används vid utveckling av hamnområden. Detta gjordes genom att analysera de strategier som använts under planeringsfasen av tre olika stadsdelar; Västra Hamnen i Malmö, Nordhavn i Köpenhamn och Cardiff Bay i Cardiff. Utöver detta valdes ett hamnområde ut i Göteborg som användes för att använda den teoretiska informationen i praktiken. Den teoretiska basen är uppbyggd av en litteratur- och dokumentstudie, där de tre stadsdelarna och den utvalda projektplatsen figurerade som de huvudsakliga forskningsobjekten, tillsammans med generell information om vattennära områden tillsammans med arkitektoniskt och kulturellt arv. De tre stadsdelarna analyserades med hjälp av fältstudier i kombination med en litteraturstudie. En matris med 10 olika teman skapades även för att bättre utforska dem. Analysen av projektplatsen genomfördes även den med hjälp av en dokumentstudie och fältstudier. Alla fältstudierna genomfördes genom att följa metoden för gåturer. Forskningen resulterade i framtagningen av sex stycken förslag på framtida åtgärder vid förnyelse av hamnmiljöer tillsammans med ett förslag för en urban struktur för Gullbergsvass. Resultaten är tänkta att användas som bas för fortsatta studier.
